Reason(s) for writing and research problem(s): Bosnia and Herzegovina offers a unique opportunity to examine how education is evolving and adapting in the context of state-building and the extent of efforts made in a still ethnically divided society. It seems very important to examine the role that politics have played in education in Bosnia and Herzegovina throughout history, and the consequences that certain attitudes have had on the current security situation in the country. Aims of the paper (scientific and/or social): This paper aims to determine the consequences of fostering the dominance of politics over education on current relations among citizens in post-conflict Bosnia and Herzegovina, and unveil the impacts of such relations on national security. Methodology/Design: The following methods were used: analytical-synthetic methods, hypothetical-deductive methods, and also axiomatic and comparative methods and, from the data collection perspective, the method of document content analysis, as well as the case study method. Research/paper limitations: The main limitation of this paper is the impossibility to provide a more detailed analysis for the period of 1992-1995. Namely, there are very few available materials that testify to the topic of education in this period. Results/Findings: The results show that all authorities in the observed periods were aware that the ease of their rule and the repetition and maintenance of the ruling relationship depend to a small extent on the character of education. As a result, they carefully selected and prepared curricula and designed educational programs according to their preferences, thus proving the direct impact of politics on education. General conclusion: The impact of politics on education in all three analysed periods of development of education in Bosnia and Herzegovina was confirmed. Given the persistent ethnic polarization, all countries in the region could make fair use of the Council of Europe's expertise, primarily in the areas of human rights, democratic citizenship and cultural diversity. 58 Criminal Justice Issues Year XX, Issue 5, 2020. Halilović-Kibrić – Security Aspects of Fostering the Dominance of Politics Over Education in Bosnia and Herzegovina Research/paper validity: In scientific terms, the research is justified by the need to point out the consequences that the politicized, segregated, fragmented and decentralized education system in Bosnia and Herzegovina has on security issues.

Debate whether legal persons can be criminally liable has been subject of academic interest and discussions for a long time. Led by Latin phrase “societas delinquere non potest”, the vast majority of legal systems did not accept criminal liability of legal persons for a long time. The key argument for this viewpoint was the lack of „mens rea” element (the “guilty mind” or intention of an individual). Yet, it would be unfair to say that legal persons were not responsible for breach of law in any other way. Legislation of the Former Republic of Yugoslavia recognized economic transgressions as a separate category of criminal offence. After the dissolution of the Former Republic of Yugoslavia, all member states showed commitment to European integration. In order to join the European Union, candidates for future membership had to harmonize national law with “acquis communautaire” and consequently introduced criminal liability of legal persons in criminal and criminal procedure codes. In the paper, besides the historical background, the author analyzes differences and similarities between criminal liability of legal persons in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, focusing on specific features of criminal proceedings against legal persons. Both countries adopted a model of derived, subjective and cumulative liability. Author compares differences between specific matters of criminal procedure against legal persons. The issue that deserves special attention in the context of derived liability of legal persons is whether a natural person and a legal person can have joint defense. Besides specific features of a criminal procedure against legal persons, the paper also elaborates different regulation of sanctions, security measures and consequences of conviction for against a legal person. Finally, in the conclusion, the author advocates intervention in B&H legislation, following the solutions prescribed by the Law on the Liability of Legal Persons for Criminal Offenses regarding joint and mandatory defense, and, especially, for establishing of a public criminal register of convictions against legal persons.

Conflicts are an integral part of doing business and companies cannot avoid them. In a globalized and dynamic environment, there is a need to manage conflicts that occur within the company, in a productive and effective way. Conflict management styles are influenced by a number of factors, including the national culture of employees, who will have certain preferences in resolving conflicts in accordance with their culture. When it comes to multicultural environment, the knowledge of the national culture of the country in which the business is being done, as well as the company’s home country, national culture is extremely important for conflict management and creation of positive atmosphere in the company. Doing business in a foreign market additionally complicates the process of the creation of interpersonal conflicts. Thus, top management coming from the home country has a big task of understanding the values and customs which are the part of personality of each employee from another country, and at the same time, the understanding of the national culture of the country in which the business was internationalized. The aim of the research is to, based on theoretical and empirical research, examine the impact of Bosnian and Herzegovinian national culture on conflict resolution styles used in foreign companies doing business in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Research results show that the national culture is a significant factor in conflict management in a company, but also in conflicts in general. The level of harmonization of chosen styles and ways of managing them with the national culture of the employees will affect their business performance, positive atmosphere and communication, and more efficiency for achieving the company’s business goals.

Bihaćka krajina je, kao sjeverozapadna regija Bosne i Hercegovine, tokom 20. stoljeća bila zahvaćena krupnim historijskim kretanjima koja su u većoj ili manjoj mjeri odredila njenu prošlost. Dio promjena se reflektirao iz ukupnih društveno-političkih, vojnih privrednih i kulturnih tokova bosanskohercegovačke zbilje, dok su neke od njih lokalnog karaktera i ukazuju na osobenosti krajine. Historiografska literatura, nastala u posljednje gotovo dvije decenije, pokazatelj je istraženosti ovog područja u pojedinim bitnim segmentima. U radu je cilj ukazati na historiografsku literaturu i objavljene izvore o Bihaćkoj krajini, s fokusom na periode prijelomnih događaja i procesa koji su obilježili prošlost ovog kraja u 20. stoljeću. U tom smislu je riječ o interesu naučnih i stručnih krugova koji su svoja istraživanja usmjerili na početak 20. stoljeća, odnosno austrougarski period, zatim Drugi svjetski rat i događaje iz socijalističkog razdoblja koji su regiju sjeverozapadne Bosne i Hercegovine doveli u središte pažnje šire javnosti ili zainteresirali historičare. Izdvojena su djela i radovi čiji su autori primarni tematski okvir istraživanja usmjerili na prošlost ovog geografskog područja i istraživanja koja tretiraju širi kontekst bosanskohercegovačke prošlosti, ali u svojim okvirima sadrže značajne podatke za sjeverozapadnu Bosnu. Za ratni period 1992–1995. ukazuje se na dostupne objavljene historijske izvore i memoarske zapise. Razlog izostavljanja literature je pojačan interes za ratnom prošlošću nakon 1990-ih, gdje je došlo do produkcije literature većeg obima koja bi zahtijevala detaljniju historiografsku analizu, što bi činilo zaseban istraživački rad na tu temu.
